The Musical Baton
MALARKEY PASSED ME the musical baton, which is going ’round. I really wish I had more time to take with this, but for now here’s a quick answer.
Total Volume
Since I’m not at home where my MP3s reside, I can’t give a precise number, but it’s around 35GB.
Last CD Bought
Not a CD but just a single, “Feel Good Inc” by Gorillaz.
Song Playing Right Now
“Joyful Sound” by String Cheese Incident
Five songs I listen to a lot, or that mean a lot to me:
- “Bring Your Loving Back Here” by Gomez
- “Balham to Brooklyn” by Turin Brakes
- “Sunken Eyed Girl” by Mike Doughty
- “Can’t Let Go” by Lucinda Williams
- “On Your Side” by Pete Yorn
Geez, that’s just silly. I have thousands of songs that mean much to me. These are just a few off the top of my head.
Five People to Whom I’m Passing the Baton

Who has started this musical baton?
This is a real pandemic. It has already been passed to many people, it’s everywhere actually.
John is responsible for me displaying my out of date musical tastes.
Richard Rutter made me do it.
How long has this been going on? It’s kind of… everywhere.
Thank *god* I am not the only String Cheese fan around here.
dave: why would you think that? I love ‘em and I know lots of other folks that do, too.
I think I’ve met a total of 2 people in the last five years who would like that kind of music. Well, 3 now.
So it is refreshing to here I’m not all alone.

My musical baton came from sIFR’s own Mark Wubben… and I don’t usually do much personal blogging. But heck, it’s short and sweet and I love music and finding new music, so — My Silly Musical Baton.
You don’t know me. Just following the baton. So far alot of Mike Doughty fans. And so far Matt May has the biggest collection at 60Gb. Sheeesh! It’s because of him they have the BIG iPod.

I have been passed the baton, so am commenting here as requested. (I also passed it back to you Molly, so sorry about that. I dont really know too many people in the blogosphere yet..and with the archaic state of my musical tastes, probably never will…)

Brad actually passed the baton to me and so I have passed it on to, well, 1 geek and 4 non geeks. I think I need to find me some geekier friends.

So far, Molly reigns queen of the disk space taken up by music. Anyone see anyone else with more?
De rigueur passing of the musical baton.
